I did not think my temperature guage was working however I grounded the wire and the guage went to max therefore I assume the guage is fine. I replaced the sender tonight and the guage reallly did not move alot, it took a long time under muffs, it went to 175 for about 5 seconds and than went to 100. I also replace the thermostat. Shouldn't this be running above 100? I did notice the water temperature coming out the outdrive was different temperatures, one was hot (est. 135) and the other was warm (est. 80),
Any suggestions what to check??
